Without regard for persons: The archaeology of american capitalism (2013)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Christopher Matthews.

In The Archaoelogy of American Capitalism, I examine a diverse range of studies to make the case that the historical archaeology in the United States is well served by a direct analysis of capitalism as a principle context for production, consumption, and cultural experience in America. Whether looking at the fur trade, the Georgian order, the creation of modern cities and industries or the practices of history-making and archaeology itself, I show how the lust for profit and bourgeois...

Women and Children First: The Archaeology of Motherhood and Childhood on San Francisco’s Yerba Buena Cove (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Teresa D. Bulger.

Popular images of the maritime industry in places like San Francisco’s Yerba Buena Cove often focus on men — whether working on docks or ships, or on land at iron works and carpenter’s shops. Less visible in the historical record of these spaces are the women and children also living, and often working, along the waterfront. Historical research on the neighborhood that bordered Yerba Buena Cove in the late-19th-century suggests that most residences were occupied by families, rather than by...

Women Bleed Red: Rendering Women’s Spaces Visible in the Archaeological Record (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Bailey Raab. Dana Bardolph.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. As Patricia Galloway aptly observed in her 1998 paper, “Where Have all the Menstrual Huts Gone?”, menstruation is rarely discussed in archaeological literature. Recent research in the Ohio River Valley has brought renewed interest to these ‘invisible’ spaces, attempting to identify potential menstrual structures in the archaeological record. It was...

Women in 16thCentury San Juan, Puerto Rico: Material Culture and Gender Role Contradictions (2020)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Julissa A. Collazo López.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Considering Frontiers Beyond the Romantic: Spaces of Encroachment, Innovation, and Far Reaching Entanglements" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. This paper will address women’s role in 16thcentury San Juan, Puerto Rico, through documentary sources produced by the Royal Treasury. Their role made part of the sociocultural transformations that were caused by the intensity of the Spanish conquest in the so called...

The Women of Fort St. Joseph, a French Colonial Settlement on the North American Frontier (2024)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Michael Nassaney. Erika Hartley.

This is an abstract from the "Recent Colonial Archaeological Research in the American Midcontinent" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Forts and fur trading posts conjure images of intrepid soldiers and jovial voyageurs engaged in masculine activities that implicated material objects like firearms, ammunition, smoking pipes, alcohol containers, and trade goods. Male colonial ambitions also structured many of the accounts that persist into the present....

Women's Networks and the Foundations of Mississippian Politics (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Jacob Lulewicz. Lynne Sullivan.

This is an abstract from the "Kin, Clan, and House: Social Relatedness in the Archaeology of North American Societies" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Mississippian societies were undoubtedly underwritten by networks of kin, clan, and other social relationships that are difficult to discern in the archaeological record. Structures of social networks provide contexts for social, political, and economic institutions and serve as conduits through...

Women's Portages: Colonial Encounters, Gender, and Indigenous Worldview in the Great Lakes (2024)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Sigrid Arnott. David Maki.

This is an abstract from the "Recent Colonial Archaeological Research in the American Midcontinent" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Dakota and then Anishinaabeg women were central figures in water-based travel cycles in an annual round directed by plant, animal, and river relations within the Woodland Tradition. Portages, including Women's Portages, are material records of Indigenous women's labor before, during, and after the Fur Trade in the...

Wonderful Things: Using Legacy Archaeological Collections for Research (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Julia King.

How does one go about using legacy archaeological collections – or any archaeological collection, for that matter – for research? The prospect can be daunting, especially if you are staring down dozens of dusty boxes on shelves. This paper offers direction for studying even the most untamed collection by understanding it as a type of secondary data – lessons learned while working with legacy collections from the Potomac and Rappahannock river valleys in Maryland and Virginia. Secondary data, a...

Wood and Wampum: Transformative Expressions of Indigenous Power (2020)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Margaret Bruchac.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Beyond Ornamentation: New Approaches to Adornment and Colonialism" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. While surveying wampum in museum collections, I encountered a unique category of ethnographic objects: Northeastern Native American wooden clubs and bowls embedded with wampum beads. These seventeenth century objects include beads that — from the obvious evidence of drilled holes and traces of fiber weft —...

Wood Work: Excavating the Wilderness Economy of New York’s Adirondack Mountains (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Hadley F. Kruczek-Aaron.

At the end of the 19th century, New York's legislature responded to the clarion call of conservationists concerned for the state's diminishing timber resources and threatened watershed by creating the Adirondack Forest Preserve, which kept millions of acres of public land in northern New York "forever wild." At the same time, the Adirondack logging industry witnessed tremendous growth on account of expanded railroad networks and paper industry innovations that opened up new areas of private land...

Wooden Histories: Narratives of Rural Abandonment and Disappearing Landmarks (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only William L Donaruma. Ian Kuijt. Sarah Seaberg.

The post 1820 wooden barns of the American mid-west are both physical structures, made of large beams, pegs and stone foundations, and silent witnesses to the dynamic interface between local, national and global social and economic changes. Drawing upon research in rural Indiania, this presentation explores the interface of regional historical research, personal interviews, and visual recording, to explore the process and potential contributions of documentary filmmaking in narrating local...

Wooden Post Architecture and the Origins of Woodland Civic-Ceremonial Centers: New Evidence from the Spring Warrior Complex, Florida (2024)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Neill Wallis. James Dunbar.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Civic-ceremonial centers first emerged in the American Southeast near the Gulf of Mexico ca. AD 200–400 and served a dual purpose as home to resident villagers and as a place of ceremonial gatherings featuring feasts, mortuary rituals, and mound construction. Over the past decade, archaeologists have learned that some of these sites began as “vacant”...

Woodland and Late Precontact Interaction along the Saint Croix River Corridor in Minnesota and Wisconsin (2021)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Edward Fleming.

This is an abstract from the "Interactions across the North American Midcontinent" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Saint Croix River is a major tributary to the Upper Mississippi River and forms a boundary between eastern Minnesota and northwestern Wisconsin. Flowing southward out of northwestern Wisconsin and entering the Mississippi near the Twin Cities, this 170-mile, north–south valley offered a passageway connecting communities of the...
